  • Hi Nard,

    Can we expect a change here in a newer version?
    For the enduser its more clear if he/she sees what is going on.

    It can not be that difficult :-)

  • Hi!

    Thank you for answering. But the most annoying thing is the new
    Selection-Square (outlined Circles)which are not very good to see. Here
    we would like to see the old (black squares) one.

  • Hi Nico,

    I can understand why you are having difficulties regarding wrapped and
    rotated text. But how about implementing wrapped text for 0, 90, 180 and 270
    degrees. That must be a simple implementation? It's just length and h…
  • Hi Nard,

    While you are making changes can I ask for another one??

    Would it be possible to toggle the visibility of SearchTabs in RAP??
    Often we have several pipelines that use the same search criteria.
    We propagate t…
  • Excellent,

    will try the code,

    thanks Nard

  • Hi Nard,

    Unfortunately we can't use Delphi code, these are end-user generated
    reports. The application is already out in the field, so it is
    difficult to use a custom pass through function at this point in time.
    We can add …
  • Hi Nard,

    The next question now is, can the order of the tabs be changed using
    RAPand if yes how??

  • I would look at puting the data in a class stucture then use a JIT pipeline.
    It doesn't take very long and ends up creating very fast reports.

  • Hi,

    There is still a problem with this method because I have a sort index in our
    database. I can't rebuild the data because the report builder groups in
    another way then the SQL!!

  • create a pass through function that checks the next record values--or still,
    look at using JIT pipelines and creating a field that indicates if it is the
    last.

    Just
    1) create a class structure that holds the data
    2) …
  • I have tables in my database which can't be changed. The tables are joined
    with each other in the report builder and there is no possibility to insert
    a boolean field.
    Is there any solutiion to do it with the RAP?

  • can you make it a boolean field? if you use JIT pipelines, this makes it
    very flexible and it would be fairly easy.

  • Never mind Nard, I replaced the data access components in the example and it
    worked fine so then I copied the main form from the example to my app and
    that is working.

  • Thank you Nard!

    The example worked. I have migrated the code to my app so that I can use
    the a TIBO table and my DB connection to convert the reports. I have also
    combined the procedures LoadTemplate and SaveTemplate so that…
  • Thanks very much, this is just what I needed.

    One minor problem: the dimensions of the component that was moved/resized
    are not updated by the time the AfterPropertyChange event is called. I got
    around this by using a timer, b…
  • Thanks Nico

    The NewPage property did the trick.

    Thanks for your help.

  • Hi

    The sql does not jet contain a where clause based on the searchfield.
    Can i get to the searchfield conditions there where i decided to use an 'OR'
    between 2 searchfields?

  • Nico,


    Not exactly the answer that I wanted to hear, but I do appreciate the
    response.

    Thanks again for the fast support.
